An elegant restaurant close to Fontana Trevi. We enjoyed lunch. Menu provided plenty of choices as did the wine menu. Highly worthwhile seeking out when looking for a more cultured choice when compared to the more tourist focussed restaurants nearby. We intend to revisit this restaurant when the weather is warmer and we could enjoy their outdoor dining.

[13:45, 07-05-2024] Irene: kan je tikkies sturen sann [13:45, 07-05-2024] Irene: TOURIST TRAP! We ordered the menu 'Crudo', a seven-course menu with wine pairing, but it did not meet our expectations at all. Firstly, we felt rushed throughput the entire evening. The first three courses arrives at the same time. The tuna was not fresh, and the various seasonings were simply unpleasant. The subsequent dishes were neither suprising nor interesting. The wine was decent, although some came from France. Additionally, the host could not provide detailed explanations about them. When we finished the sixth dish, we asked if we could wait for 10 more minutes before the desert came as we felt rushed through the courses. He responded that the kitchen was closing at 10:30 PM. We left the restaurant at 11:00 PM, unsatisfied and with a bill of €135,- per person. Overall, the quality and prices were not balanced, and the service was below par.

This restaurant was a fantastic surprise because combined the Italian cuisine with the delicacy of French service with a very good price quality. The coconut ice cream with olive oil was an unforgettable experience. The environment is elegant but never arrogant.

Food in Italy is great but this restaurant stands out for its lightness and creativity. We had the 90 euro "Raw" menu which was excellent. Very similar to "one Star" restaurants. Very pleased with the wine pairing and general service.

We had a bad experience this weekend. We had placemats instead of table cloths while all others tables had cloths. The dishes were very, very small, the wine was not good. The waiter served the dishes too quickly. When we complained the waiter reacted very arrogant. The chef tried to improve to serve an extra dish. Overall: for the high price calculated it was a very bad experience.

A wonderful experience, delicious food and great service. Very appreciative of the ability to accommodate my gluten intolerance without sacrificing choice and taste. The second tasting menu was enjoyed by both my husband, who can eat gluten, and myself. Highly recommend!

This meal - the food, the service, the wine, and the atmosphere - was everything we needed. After almost two weeks of focusing on mostly traditional meals, it was refreshing to experience Le Tamerici. We were thrilled with the modern interpretations of traditional dishes, which managed to retain the things we love best about the original standards. When we saw the location of the restaurant, we worried it would be crowded, noisy, and touristy, but once we we’re nestled inside, it was none of those things. The quiet space was soothing and intimate. The service was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. Don't miss the coco dessert - it was a wild ride, and now I want olive oil poured over my ice cream all the time!

It was terrible. I am actually angry that we paid. First of all no alcohol, just wine, but that would have been ok if they didn’t say they could make us vodka martinis, which tasted like vanilla? And lemon? Sent those back. Talked into 70 euro tasting menu. Welcome course ok, cod with some sort of foam, tomato and maldon salt, edible if not great. Then next course Cod again?? Cod mush shaped like a log and one shaped like a ball with tomato sauce on it, flavorless, horrible texture…we didn’t eat, but hoped for better luck. Next course mushy eggplant with more tomato sauce and some Parmesan cheese, just mush overload. Next was a pasta dish we had high hopes for, “lasagna” with pork ribs, it was overcooked pasta with ground meat that had gristle in it. Mushy again…seriously whole meal was like baby food, no crunch, no acid, no texture…even worse the chef was hovering around us, leaning on the wall staring at us…we felt bad for him which was the only reason we kept trying to eat. Next course COD again, with yes, Tomato sauce!! Three dishes were the same ingredients!! Three dishes in a tasting menu with cod and tomato sauce?? Michelin should be ashamed for recommending…and I should be ashamed for not stopping after 3rd serving of mush and refusing to pay. Don’t go.

I found this place via ViaMichelin suggestions which I trust but was a bit sceptical given some web reviews and rating. At the end we decided to give it a try and had a wonderful meal, attention, time. Highly recommend and you will be pleased by creative yet not too far from enjoying an Italian meal with friends or family, completely off the noise (and annoyance) of the Trevi area yet 20m away! Fresh seafood, excellent pasta, good wine list and suggestions and very attentive service with a friendly chef and waiter staff and pleasant surroundings! We will be back!

This was the best dining experience we had while in Italy, not just Rome. The service was extraordinary and the food was perfect. Highly recommend tasting menu number 2.

Food was excellent and so was the restaurant ambience. Service has a slight discount and can continue to elevate (we accidentally spilled a glass of white wine on the table but waiter did not immediately try to overlay with table cloth and did not change/refill glass. Also, empty wine glasses went unfilled for long periods and got refilled when prompted-the wines were kept outside arms length distance)

This is NOT Michelin quality! I do not understand why they are recommended and listed by Michelin. Food is of a medium quality, similar to the many poor restaurants in the nearby, very small portions, extremely fast service ( 5 courses in less than 50 minutes) and way too expensive for this poor quality.

Incredible: this was our second time here and it was even better than the first. This is a place for people who are passionate about food and respect the art of a great chef. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and perfectly proportioned, with cohesive and inventive ingredient combinations. The tasting menu has a clear evolution with key ingredients connecting successive dishes. No surprise that it’s in the Michelin Guide! The service was awesome, the staff are clearly well trained in front-of-house standards and genuine.

We ate at this wonderful restaurant the first day we landed in Rome. Before we left we booked it again for our last supper in Rome. It is a wonderful culinary experience that we will never forget.

This beautiful restaurant tucked away on a quiet street near Fontana di Trevi was exquisite. The service was impeccable, very friendly, and made our experience wonderful. We have a small baby and they were gracious about accomodating our stroller. We selected the raw tasting menu with the full wine pairing. Each dish was thoughtfully and creatively crafted and carefully paired. I especially enjoyed the gnocci. I should also mention, their roman classics are exceptional. We enjoyed every moment!

The restaurant is a big disappointment, the food is terribly tasteless and all the dishes had a bad smell. None of the five dishes can be a recommendation.
